The Whitechapel Murderer was most active between the months of August to November of 1888. Two other victims attributed to the killer were Alice MacKenzie in 1889 and Francis Cole in 1891.
He was an avid sportsman who was discovered drowned in the Thames river on December 31, 1888 and was the son of a medical practitioner. With the theory that the ripper was a butcher or a doctor or someone in a doctor's family, he was considered a suspect since the ripper didn't kill no more after 1888. He died in the last day or the year 1888. Those were the fact in considering him as a suspect.

If we're talking about the 5 murders that are attributed to the Ripper they started in August 1888 until November 1888. Although most experts agree now that the Ripper had far more victims, and did not disappear after the Mary Kelly murder. So these 5 would be late summer through fall. Reality tells us that the murders lasted at least until 1891, and I personally believe that continued until after the turn of the century.
